(2007)Epidemiologic evidence suggests a preferential association of Trypanosoma cruzi genotypes TCI and TCII with marsupials and placental mammals, respectively. We identify T. cruzi genotypes from 117 infected mammals. Minicircle ...
-
(2009)PCR and Southern blot hybridization were used to determine the distribution of Trypanosoma cruzi clones in 37 chronic chagasic cardiopathic and non-cardiopathic patients. Parasite DNA amplified from peripheral blood or ...
-
(Elsevier, 2013)The hematophagous Hemiptera of the subfamily Triatominae are a very diverse group with a variety of morphs, behaviors and distributions. They have great epidemiological importance because many of its members are vectors ...
-
(2009)The sylvatic transmission cycle of Chagas disease in Chile is composed of wild mammals and insects of the genus Mepraia. We determined infection rates and Trypanosoma cruzi genotypes in Mepraia spinolai. We collected 227 ...
-
(2007)Background. Trypanosoma cruzi, the agent of Chagas disease, is subdivided into 6 discrete typing units (DTUs); their identification is important to understand clinical pleomorphism and track sylvatic DTUs that might ...
-
(AMER SOC TROP MED & HYGIENE, 2010-04-19)We identified and followed-up for two years Octodon degus rodents infected with Trypanosoma cruzi genotypes by using xenodiagnosis with two vector species ( Mepraia spinolai and Triatoma infestans ), polymerase chain ...
-
(2009)Background: PCR has evolved into one of the most promising tools for T. cruzi detection in the diagnosis and control of Chagas disease. However, general use of the technique is hampered by its complexity and the lack of ...
-
(MARY ANN LIEBERT INC, 2012-03)Fifty-six Trypanosoma cruzi stocks from Chile and neighboring countries and different hosts, humans, and Triatoma infestans and Mepraia sp., vectors of domiciliary and natural environments were characterized by using three ...
-
(AMER SOC TROP MED & HYGIENE, 2005-09)We report results of PCR-DNA based detection of Trypanosoma cruzi in wild mammal reservoirs from a chagasic area of Chile. We analyzed 157 blood samples from wild mammals including the marsupial Thylamis elegans and the ...
